An Old Mans Faith.
Youths Companion.

The English clergyman who preached sermon on the existence of God was painfully impressed by the fact that he had used words not easily understood by his country congrega- tion. On his way home after church, he fell in with an old man, and asked his hearers opinion of the sermon.
 "Eh, zur," answered the perplexed nearer, to whom the sermon had been so much Latin and Greek, q must say, beggin' yer pardon, that believe there is God after all"
 The same impression was made on the mind of vicar newly installed in village parish. He was good man, but better acquainted with the dialect of the town than of the country. He rarely spoke of God, though he re- ferred frequently and reverently to Providence.
 A small farmer having lost his wife, the vicar made him pastoral visit, to condole with him on his loneliness. Among other comforting thoughts, he suggested that the ordering of "Divine Providence" must not be murmured at, and that Providence" must be submitted to with resignation.
 The old farmer listened in silence for some minutes, but at last he could refrain no longer.
 "That's right chef, that as [" said he. 'There ain't no use a-gainsayin' on it; but, somehow, that there Old Prori- deace hev been agin me all along, he hev! Whoi, last year he mos spoilt my taters, and the year afore that he kinder did for my tunnips, and now he's been and got hold O my missus But I reckon as there's One abev as'll put stopper on ha if a go too fur p

"Now yell, like pack of hyenas, and bring them temperance hounds after me; it's cur'us, blamed cur'us, that ye can't take glass of grog an go home 'thout raisin' the dead with yer internal noisew And the land lord thrust his hands deep down into his trousers pockets and began pacing up and down the long piazza which went the whole length of the low, tumble-down brown building. This was known as the "Poor Mans Rest," by the gaudy red and yellow letters upon the old sign board, which creaked dismally in the wind. The blaze in she smoke -begrimed lantern hanging outside the door, flared up, then died out, as fresh gust, now and then striking the building, came dash ing around the corner, finding it's way beneath the low roof of the piazza where the angry landlord paced, lis- tening to sounds of cursing, interming- led with snatches of drunken song which foated back upon the air.
 AS the echoes died away in the dis tance the landlord slackened his pace up and down and began in an audible voice to commune with himself.
 "Yes," said he, "here the poor man can come of an evenin' am smoke his pipe, and drink friendly glass with his neighbor in peace, away from scoldin' wife and squallin' brats. There ain't one on lem as has decent home to sit in, an they know it, yet they will act like fools and keep them temperance folks a-naggin' me, just as if it was my fault. They will have drink somewhere anyway, and Pll tell lem time and time agin to be men and drink like men, not brutes, but il don't do mite of good"
 With look that plainly indicated that he felt himself to be a much abused individual, he turned and en- tered the door, closing it with a bang
 Just as he was about to turn the key and shut up for the night, shuf- fling sound was heard in one corner o1 the dimly Lighted bar-room, and { man of about fifty years of age of tn, stamp and appearance of those who disappeared in the darkness, cam, UOWaIu Iuc hHulOTu Wltu OruukeI leer. Holding out his hands, he ex. claimed in thick, husky tones:
 "Now, friend Joe, did you say drink like men, not brutes?' Why Joe, the brute only drinks what ma. ture demands, and men drink till they can't stand, hel he! he! What 'ut become of the Poor Mans Rest if W, did drink like brutes?"
 "You here, John Lyon? I though you had gone with the rest of lem Come" said he, ''it's time honest folk were in bed and rogues were jogging.
 He opened the door, and motionei impatiently to the man to go out.
 "Give us another drink first" said the man, turning and walking toward the bar.

 AN ELECTRIC SPARK
BY ULA MERE

One evening was sitting
 In the parlor all alone, When heard the silver jingle Of the parlor telephone. Quick answered, "who's that callingT' And there came soft reply, Don't you recognize me, darling? Can't you tell that it Is I?'' With slight prevarication,
 And blush upon my cheek, "Oh," l said, "I am not certain That ever heard you speak" "All the evening I've been dreaming" Came the voice across the wire, "And of what have been scheming will tell, if you desire" Then said: 'I should be happy To hear what you have to say, But hardly think it proper
 While my papa Is away" "All the evening I've been scheming," He continued to converse, And of what l have been dreaming, If you'll listen, I'll rehearse." How could refuse to listen
 To his voice so soft and sweet, So only said: "Go on, sir
 And your dream to me repeat" "I've been dreaming of q cottage, Down beside southern sea, Just beyond 1t lay the ocean,
 Just before, an emerald lea. "Care nor sorrow could not find it, Happiness was there at home, Earths turmoil was far behind it.
 Joy through all the halls did roam. "Nightly mOonbeams shed about it Lustre beauteOus and rare, And far, and near, and all throughout 1t Fragrance-laden was the air. "Flowers of every cline and tropic HlOssomed daily through the year; Birds with songs both sweet and antic Filled the fragrant air with cheer. "Often fairies wandered through it., Filling every hall with glee, None were there with them to view 1t, Save maiden fair and me. "But they knew we would not harm them By our actions they could tell Cupid long ago did arm them
 That we loved each other well. "But my story would be endless
 should l try to tell you half, How woocd and won the maiden, How it made those fairies laugh. "IIow we watched those happy fairies Take their bath in morning dew, How we strOlled upon the sea side
 Making promises anew, "IIow we reared our happy children, In that cottage by the sea, How they lived and shared our splendor, Shared our happiness and glee. "Would 1t give you consternation? Would 1t be too bold to say, Just by way of information,
 In sort of careless way "That the maiden in that vision
 You've so kindly listened to, Was no other mortal person,
 Little darling, else than you9 "This, know, is but vision,
 But will you with me confess We might realize a portiOn?"
 And only answered "Yes."

ING have brought it on. It comes upon us unawares. The patients have pains about the chest and sides. and sometimes in the back. They feel dull and sleepy; the mouth has a bad taste, especially in the morning. A sort of sticky slime collects about the teeth. The appe- tite is poor. There is feeling like a heavy load on the stomach; some times..a faint. all-gone sensation at the pit of the stomach which food does not satisfy. The eyes are sunken. the hands and feet become cold and feel clammy. After & while cough sets in, at first dry. but after few months it is attended with a greenish colored expectora- tion. The patient feels tired all the while. and sleep does not seem to afford any rest. After a time he becomes nervous, irritable and gloomy, and has evil forebodings. There is giddiness, sort of whirl- ing sensation in the head when ris- ing up suddenly. The bowels be- come costive; the skin is dry and hot at times; the blood becomes thick and stagnant; the whites of the eyes become tinged with yell low; the kidney secretions become scanty and high-colored, depositing sediment after standing. There is frequently 8 splitting up of the food, sometimes with a sour taste and sometimes with 8 swedish taste: this is frequently attended with palpitation of the heart and Asth. matic symptoms; the vision becomes impaired, with spots before the eyes; there is a feeling of great prostration and weakness. All of these symptoms are in turn present. It is thought that nearly one-half of our population has this disease in some of it's varied forms. Shaker Extract of Roots (Seigel's Syrup changes the ferments of the Diges- tive organs so as to convert the food we eat into form that will give nourishment to the feeble body, and good health is the consequence. The effect of this remedy is simply marvellous. Millions upon millions of bottles have been sold in this country, and the testimonials in favor of it's curative powers are overwhelming. Hundreds of so- called diseases under various names are the result of indigestion. and when this one trouble is removed the other diseases vanish. for they are but symptoms of the real ms:sdy.
 Testimonials from thousands oi people speaking highly of its cura- tive properties prove this beyond . doubt. Sold by druggists.

With outstretched arms he groped around, muttering and cursing the door because it "kept lodging every time he came near it."
 Tired at last with his unsuccessful efforts, he sat down and attempted to pull off his boots. Plugging and pull- ing, stamping and swearing, he finally succeeded in removing one of the old, battered, needless things, which he threw, with all his drunken strength, against the still swinging door.
 "Now squeal, will ye, you consarned old goblin" said he, shaking his fist in the direction of the fancied mid- night apparition.
 "Ol for another drink, yes a drink, say; must have a drink" and again he groped for the door. His hand struck the latch; clutching it, he threw himself against the door and found himself in the kitchen.
 The weary wife, worn out with the tolls of the day, sleeps on. The boot less foot presses the floor noiselessly, while the other comes down with a dull, uncertain sound, as John endeav- ors to make his way into the little pantry, where he hoped to find some- thing to moisten his parched lips. Chairs turn over, stove doors chatter and John circles about in the darkness like one lost in dream.
